Don Ward

Don Ward was the slots manager at the Tangiers Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada under Frank Rosenthal. He was appointed to that position due to his uncle being a chief judge and his brother-in-law/second cousin being Clark County Commissioner Pat Webb, but he was incompetent. In 1976, he was fired by Rosenthal after allowing for people to swindle the casino, and Rosenthal refused to reinstate him, despite knowing that his family would not forgive him.
